I honestly can't believe it's 2011. I swear I was just finally remembering to put 2010 instead of 2009 on all written dates.... and now we're into a whole new year.
2010 was amazing, simply because of B. I cannot even begin to explain how simply awesome it is to watch him grow and learn... and laugh at him and how damn adorable he is... and how silly and how innocent and how beautiful!!!! I could go on and on.... Bennett easily takes the cake for lots of favorites in my life. I am tempted to say he is my everything... but there are many others that make my life complete.
Not everything in 2010 was perfect, though. I will admit that having B join our family wasn't the easiest transition for P & myself. You know the saying "Having a child brings you closer together"... well, that wasn't the case for us. If anything, having Bennett (and all the wonderfulness that he is!) definitely put a strain on our marriage. I will admit that towards the end of this past year, I was growing more and more selfish and more resentful towards P for Lord knows what... because honestly, there is no reason I should feel remotely close to this towards him. P is the best Father to B... he helps and does more than any other Father I've seen.. and I am so thankful for that, and for him... but it's taken me a long time to see the light on this one. Remember those
I feel refreshed and renewed as this brand new year has fallen upon us... and I just know it's going to be a GREAT year....!!!!! I wanna say that I "can't wait", but I have learned that I can wait.. and it will be worth it.
Happy 2011 Everyone!!!!
I feel refreshed by the start of a new year too! Here's to an amazing 2011!!
ReplyDeleteCheers to 2011! These little ones have made this year amazing!! Also, having a baby is the best thing and the hardest. It is very trying and Brandon and I have had our struggles too. I'm pretty sure that's the case for most couples.
ReplyDeleteI am also in the same boat with it being difficult on D and I - definitely don't feel alone there!
ReplyDeleteI am feeling like 2011 could be the best year yet!
Happy new year! I feel ya on the goals. I haven't made any resolutions, but I do want this to be a year of change. Good luck to you and your family! :)
ReplyDeletehere is to a fresh start and a brand new 2011!!
ReplyDeleteI've read that it takes a year to recover from childbirth and adjust to the changes, both physically and emotionally. I agree that it can be hard at times and it's especially hard having a human being depend on you for everything. It's a good thing these babies are so darn cute and make our jobs easier! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your family!!
I'm with all you other moms! I definitely feel like this year will have so many new and great things in store for us. I told my husband that this year, I'm going to turn into a buff chick and be in uber good shape. It's been over a year and I'm tired of being fat!
